The National Gambling Helpline is operated by GamCare and offers free and confidential support, information and advice on problem gambling either via telephone (Helpline) or online (NetLine). It can also provide direction to chat room forums and printed information depending on what you need and when.

The Helpline's experienced staff can provide information and advice, refer you to other sources of help and also tell you what may be available locally. This can include referral to sources of help about money and debt advice, along with identifying other suitable forms of personal help such as counselling, and crisis support. The Helpline can also offer free face-to-face or online counselling for those affected by a gambling problem either directly or locally via our network of treatment providers right across Britain.
